Has anyone read the book The Blessing of a Skinned Knee by Wendy Mogel. My DW and I just started it and have found it very informative and helpful. The book speaks a lot about creating self sufficiant children. At our DS6 school they have been offering parenting classes for 6 mondays. My DW has been able to attend, and many of the core principals in this book are brought up in the class. Also our first meeting with DS6 room 1 teacher, covered much of the same. The school pushes natural consaquences for actions. They push independance, and personal responsibity. They want the chldren to learn to self advocate if they have any issues. If they fail to bring in their school work, they have to deal with the consaquences. I am curious if anyone has completed the book, and what your thoughts are on it.
